Two highways lay before me, which one will I chooseDown one lane I'd find happiness and down the other I would loseThere is no one that I can trust, I must decide aloneMy decision is an awful one, which road will take me home

In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have goneWill I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so longOnly time will tell if I have made a loser's choiceAnd though sadness cries my inner soul, goodbye lover moans my voice

Perils, there are many, as I set out on my wayIf I lose your love I know that I can call it back somedayRambler, lonely rambler, just 'cause anyplace is homeNashville, lights how you have always shined

Wishing now that you had found a word or two to sayBut the mornin' came and we both knew my eyes gave it awayAs I kissed your cheeks and said goodbye I thought only time will tellAnd you can't draw water from an empty well

In the mornin' would I wake to find, down the wrong road I have goneWill I hear the melodies I've searched for oh so longOnly time will tell if I have made a loser's choiceAnd though sadness cries my inner soul, goodbye lover moans my voice
